This is something I have been thinking about as well.
Ive heard that there were kits floating around that let you start the car with the remote.

I have a mate who has done this but doesnt use the button to stop the engine. Not as good as the real FPV button. but still cool

It would be dead simple to do, just run 2 wires to the starter relay. I've got a momentary switch that I use when I need to use the starter to turn the engine over for a second. The only thing is that the starter would operate any time but without the key on the car wouldnt actually start.

I reckon the Xbox button is pritty nerdy.
An eject button might be more suitable to ejector seats

I know it's not an EA, but I'm pretty sure JC did this mod to his AU XR8. It would be a pretty similar procedure I'm guessing.

That looks pretty legit, if anyone is successful with it, then please post it up on here!
Stock Standard: Yes they are many kits that involve remote start, my mate has installed one into his ED, purchased off eBay.

JC did this to his AU XR8. I assume the theory would be the same
